Nico Hulkenberg firmly expressed his views on potential changes to the Monaco Grand Prix track, advising critics to “stop crying” about the track’s historic nature and challenging them to qualify better for more exciting races. Despite GPDA president Alex Wurz suggesting alterations to enhance the entertainment value, Hulkenberg emphasized the tradition and challenges of Monaco for overtaking. The German driver noted the buzz around the event with celebrities and guests but questioned the last truly spectacular Monaco Grand Prix, highlighting the track’s inherent limitations. Fernando Alonso echoed Hulkenberg’s sentiment, suggesting that F1 drivers may be overly polite in discussing potential modifications to the iconic circuit, underscoring the enduring appeal and unique nature of the Monaco race. Alonso reminisced about a time when past champions like Senna and Prost would have had less diplomatic responses to similar discussions about Monaco, implying a shift in the current drivers’ approach.
